Yes please where is it coming from?
Acclimate it by long temp acclimation and then drip acclimate for an hour, slowly pouring out water as you go/bucket gets full. Doing the drip for longer wont hurt though.

Will need to light acclimate with a couple layers of screen, and will need to create an area for it that it will be comfortable along the rock work shielded from direct flow.
